A practical approach to planning law - Victor Moore

Planning law has become increasingly complex in recent years. By identifying the fundamental principles of the law, this book helps both students and practitioners to disentangle the complicated issues involved in this field.;The author guides readers through the main statutory code in such a way as to make it both intelligible and accessible. He examines the legal machinery for obtaining planning permission for the development of land, as well as dealing with additional controls imposed in areas of special environmental significance.;This new edition deals fully with the provisions of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990, whilst appendices contain the full text of the Current Use Classes Order and general Development Order. It also includes a supplement to the Planning Provisions of the Planning and Compensation Act 1991.;There are two new additional chapters on environmental assessment and ancient monuments and areas of architectural importance. Victor Moore is also a visiting lecturer in local government and planning law at the Inns of Court School of Law and is editor of the "Journal of Planning and Environment".
